The accuracy of camera-based object detection (CBOD) built upon deep learning is often evaluated against the real objects in frames only. However, such simplistic evaluation ignores the fact that many unimportant objects ...

Hybrid computer systems combine compute units (CUs) of different nature like CPUs, GPUs and FPGAs. Simultaneously exploiting the computing power of these CUs requires a careful decomposition of the applications into balanced ...

GPU-based computing systems have become a widely accepted solution for the high-performance-computing (HPC) domain. GPUs have shown highly competitive performance-per-watt ratios and can exploit an astonishing level of ...

Pipelining the scheduling logic, which exposes and exploits the instruction level parallelism, degrades processor performance. In a 4-issue processor, our evaluations show that pipelining the scheduling logic over two ...

As the end of Moore's Law approaches, electronic system designers must find ways to keep up with the ever increasing computational demands of the modern era. Some computationally intensive applications, such as multimedia ...
